Short let double in a friendly household
We have a double room available for 4 months from June until October in our home in lovely green Bevendean on the foothills of the Downs. We like to live by an intentional community/ communal-living philosophy and create a space which feels like a shared home rather than a house share, and is more environmentally sustainable. Come round to meet us for a cup of tea and a chat!
The Community
• 3 other people their thirties
• We buy food in bulk from Infinity and get an organic veg box delivered weekly collectively
• Weekly cooking rota. This means you only have to cook one day a week essentially, and you'll probably find your food bills significantly reduce.
• We cook vegan meals but most of us are veggie or even meat eaters outside the house
• Share the care of the garden (which has a veg plot) and living spaces
• Generally winding down from 10pm on a weekday
• Sociable environment
The House:
• 4 bedrooms, living room, dining room, 1 bathroom, 2 toilets
• Large attic storage which you are free to use
• Large wooden outhouse/shed which we have used as a shared office/ work space at times, and which you are welcome to use in whatever way you want.
• 15 minute cycle into town and regular buses 1 minute from the door
• Big garden with lawn, patio and vegetables
The room:
• double room £400pcm (bills not included, bills usually around £150/month, bills include weekly veg box, tv licence, recycling, internet, water, electricity, cat food)
• Double glazed windows, looks out onto the Downs
• Room comes with floor double bed (cosy futon), desk and chair, armchair and spacious built in wardrobe
• Available from June until end September-can be slightly flexible
You:
• Community minded and up for joining in with shared care of house and garden
• Cat friendly
• Able to pay one months rent up front and one month’s rent as deposit
• Good sense of humour
• Respectful and warm-hearted
In terms of accessibility we have 5 steps to the front door and the bedroom is on the first floor. LGBTQIA+/immigration/PoC friendly space:)
We look forward to meeting you! :)
